The accompanying data represent the daily​ (for example, Monday to​ Tuesday) movement of Johnson​ & Johnson​ (JNJ) stock for

61 randomly selected trading days.​ "Up" means the stock price increased for the time period.​ "Down" means the stock price decreased​ (or was​ unchanged) for the time period. Construct and interpret a ​95% confidence interval for the proportion of days JMJ stock increases.
Find the upper and lower bounds for the 95​% confidence interval.

Supposing that the stock increases in 37 days, the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of days JMJ stock increases is: (0.484, 0.7292)

  • The lower bound is of 0.484.
  • The upper bound is of 0.7292.
  • The interpretation is that we are <u>95% sure that the true proportion</u> of all days in which the JMJ stock increases <u>is between 0.484 and 0.7292.</u>

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of \alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of \frac{1+\alpha}{2}.

Supposing that it increases on 37 out of 61 days:

n = 61, \pi = \frac{37}{61} = 0.6066

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.95, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of \frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975, so z = 1.96.  

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.6066 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.6066(0.3934)}{61}} = 0.484

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.6066 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.6066(0.3934)}{61}} = 0.7292

The ​95% confidence interval for the proportion of days JMJ stock increases is (0.484, 0.7292), in which 0.484 is the lower bound and 0.7292 is the upper bound.

The interpretation is that we are <u>95% sure that the true proportion</u> of all days in which the JMJ stock increases <u>is between 0.484 and 0.7292.</u>

3x − 6y = –6 x = 2 solve using substitution.
nordsb [41]

Answer:

y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you substitute x with 2.

3(2)-6y=(-6)

Then, you multiply:

6-6y=(-6)

Next, you subtract 6 from -6. So, the first 6 gets crossed out because of inverse of operation.

-6y=-12

Finally, you divide -6 to both sides of the equation to get y=2
